But even for park&ride this is a miserable way to do it, not only is surface parking just inherently awful in every way but they also separated the actual high-density residential area from the station by a big parking lot! It's insane!

Literally the next station up on the same line has an actual parking garage and is thus more comfortable for commuting drivers.

    Branch Avenue is i think a better example of the same thing, just a bit to the southwest.

    Not only is it literally surrounded by a sea of parking that seems to house a grand total of like 50 cars when the aerial imagery was taken, but it's also got a shitass miserable commercial area to one side and it's got highways boxing it in so good fucking luck walking there from anywhere but the development nearby (doesn't even have a ROAD connecting it to .. No wonder they put in a massive parking lot when everyone has to drive to the subway..

    Fucking beautiful scenic walking route
